Despite frightening fall, Utah trapeze artists advance on ‘America’s Got Talent’

Nearly two-and-a-half minutes into what had been a stunning performance, things went horribly wrong for husband-and-wife trapeze team of Tyce Nielsen and Mary Ellen Wolfe. After he put on a blindfold, and she slipped through his hands and fell to the stage below, landing on a large padded.

To all appearances uninjured, Wolfe said the couple — who perform as Duo Transcend — wanted to try the blindfold stunt again, but the judges were having none of it.
